Abstract

The article summarizes the results of analysis of clinical effective risks in patients with concomitant pelvic injuries, depending on the clinical-nosological combinations and clinical-epidemiological characteristics of the age and gender. We have analyzed 400 medical records of patients with polytrauma, who were treated in the Ternopil university hospital during 2008–2012. Among this cohort, pelvic injury was diagnosed in 45 of cases (11.25 %), mainly in males. As our analysis shows, concomitant pelvic injuries are characterized by a high risk of death, which increases with age and is more typical for men. There is a clear tendency to increase the probability of death of patients with increasing the quantity of multiple injuries. Victims from older age groups have a significant risk of adverse outcome, even with relatively mild injuries. With increasing the number of multiple injuries, the impact of risk-contributing factor by gender in patients with polytrauma significantly reduces.
